Product Description

This is also known as my first symphony. I had written this in the ambition to get placed as a finalist in the Young Composers challenge for 2016.

This song is based around the phrase "Cry Havoc and let slip the dogs of war" a phrase going back to the time of William Shakespeare's play. Julius Caesar. In the scene, Mark Antony is alone with Julius Caesar's body, shortly after Caesar's assassination. In a soliloquy, he reveals his intention to incite the crowd at Caesar's funeral to rise up against the assassins. Foreseeing violence throughout Italy, Antony even imagines Caesar's spirit joining in the exhortations: "ranging for revenge, with Ate by his side come hot from hell, shall in these confines with a Monarch's voice cry "Havok!" and let slip the dogs of war." The song is split into split into 3 parts, the intro, the march to war, and the Victory

This song is 5 minutes and 5 seconds long, and is appropriate for schools and students
